Out of a total bird population of 400 billion. This is something under .0001%. Trust me - the bird population is in no danger.
What percentage of those killed are from an endangered species?
Well, any bird hit by a wind turbine is pretty much endangered.
I was surprised, on a flight back from Auckland a few weeks ago, to see a sizable wind-farm on the hills outside Wellington that I didn't know about. It makes sense for a city as windy as Wellington is.
